Description
Quantum 3 is an educational match-3 game for all ages where fun meets quantum physics! Build subatomic particles, learn about the mysteries of fundamental physics and deploy antimatter to clear the way! You'll match and swap quarks to make (and learn about) the baryons you need for each objective. Puzzle out the quantum properties of color, flavor and spin. So get in there and start your quantum-venture! Quantum 3 is puzzle-matching at its finest and a great intro to the world of particle physics!
The game is free-to-play with no in-app purchases.

I wish we had more games like this. Not a game anyway! It is basic physics lessons put inside a game context which is really fantastic! Love it.

It's a pretty cool way to get familiar with some standard model terms and how quarks combine to make other particles. I just got to level 16, and found a typo in one of the image explanations for neutrons. The text correctly says that a neutron is made up of one up and two down quarks, but the image shows 1 up, 1 down, and 1 strange. Based on some reading, it looks like the game in level 16 really wants you to make lambda particles (U, D, S), not neutrons, so you might want to fix the text.

Can't get past level 1 :(swap mode tutorial won't let me through
